Unbelievable performance by Real Madrid

Los Blancos won the first-leg of the Round of 16 tie 8-0 against woeful Levante to virtually guarantee their place in the quarter-finals. It was a very comprehensive performance
and once again Cristiano Ronaldo was at his best. Hala Madrid.





Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo were the heroes, both grabbing a hat-trick a piece, while Mesut Oezil and substitute Pedro Leon netted solitary strikes as rampant Real served up a Christmas cracker for the fans who turned out at the Bernabeu.






Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho put out a surprisingly strong starting XI, including star man Ronaldo, who was a pre-match doubt. However, it was team-mate Benzema who stole the show with a stunning first half performance.
Yet there was no sign of what was to come when he volleyed Ronaldo’s sumptuous flick wide from close range in the second minute.
